This saved me some money. 9 year old V70 had driver door speakers randomly cutting out and parking sensor making crackling sound. Had to make two attempts, it didn't help when only applying tape. 2 wires had visible corrosion so I cut out small section on both and soldered new pieces. Second attempt success and now it works fine. Many thanks!

My V70 ‘09, have this problem, just thought it had some work done and the door was never adjusted correctly. When I say your video, you provided me with a major shortcut, I would never have found this to be the cause, so I would probably adjusted my self to death - I’m ordering two repair-kits for it. Thanks for another great video!

[@mikehewitt6484]

Brilliant video. Just checked mine, top & bottom hinges have play on the drivers door. The passenger side has play on the top hinge too. Expensive parts to order in the UK. Thanks for the heads up guys 👍🏻🙏

[@nilslarsson4266]

Thanks, I ordered and installed the hinge pins, which would not have been possible without your guide. My car is a 2007 S80 sold in Sweden with 270.000 km on the clock and it didn´t have the cable tie and plastic tab on the connector, the cables were not even wrapped with tape, and there were no damage at all on cables, all looked very good. Closing/opening of the door is now working as when it was new. Again thanks

[@pavw5508]

Six years of a catching handle on my S80 as well as sagging door and the fix is this easy? I thought the rusted hinge on my car would require replacement by welding, so this is a no-brainer. Thank you Yuri!! And thanks for showing the wiring fix too!

[@volvosweden]

Great. Hopefully you will fix it soon.

[@thesaint1800s]

Thank you so much, your video must have saved me a lot of money! I have an 09 with intermittent door malfunction and error messages, hinges are fine! Fully prepared to find the tie rip, no such thing, instead I found an old repair! Badly done. I chose to remove the pins from the plug and use heat shrink on five wires, one even had to be soldered. Bottom line it works again thanks to your helpful video. Funny note, I was prepared for an extremely heavy Volvo door so I was pleasantly surprised to find it was possible, not easy, to do it alone.

[@andya2671]

Great video!!! I have trouble with the DDM, drivers door window controller and need to check the wires. This is all I need to know to get I. There and fix it! Thank you so much.

[@stephendauphinee6039]

I had the door electrical about seven years ago when my XC70 was at 200,000 km. The passenger door started with door locks and window control not working when door opened on cold day. Removed electrical connection and twisted pair control wiring was pulling away from door connector. Solder new jumper wires. Also removed inside panels and removed ty-wraps allow the wire harness more freedom to move. Within a year the outside temperature sensor inside driver side mirror started having problems. I removed door electrical connector and again some wires has broken. Soldered jumper wires, removed inside panel and removed ty-wraps from cable harness. Repair still good after seven years. Will check drive door hinge. The wires repaired in the video are the twisted pair control wires which will affect window control and and door locks in both doors on same side of car. My 2009 XC70 has 374,000 km and still going strong

Never knew this can happen with the P3 Volvos. But seeing feeling heavy the doors are, it makes sense. I live in California, so the climate isn’t hard on cars. I’ll check mine tomorrow

[@skaris8816]

Had the same problem on my - 13 xc70 T6. First the dealer told me i had to cut of the whole hinge and weld a new one in place. I then found out about the repair kit and it turned out that Volvo covered the whole operation on good will. So i got the repair kit installed and the hinges repainted in the correct colour, all free of charge. The dealer had no idea of this and of course first would not pay for it but when they contacted head quarters they changed their mind. Maybe worth checking out before you pay for the repair kit(s), might only work in sweden, but worth checking out.

AC is vital in Florida, we need it in Canada too, this summer highest temp was 38C in the prairies! That noise could be an expensive one, I noticed some on mine but could be the belt. I'll wait till next summer, AC is used now just for defogging.

Thank you ♥️. Great tutorial 👍

[@benconover72]

Excellent tips and methods, well done. Interesting particularly the wiring loom got moused. On my Volvo 2012 S60 II the entire hinge assembly is screwed to the body and door, so fitting a replacement is simpler.

[@srnc9740]

Hmm, rust on hinge on 2013 S80?! My 2011 S80 is still rust-free, but the electrical problem with that wires I already had it, maybe this is the reason for why the former owner sold it because he had in console many 20A fuses! The problem occurred about 1.5 years after I bought it, the entire left side went dead including mirrors that remained folded. Almost every day I had to replace a fuse, so I removed the door and fix it. This is a Volvo mistake keeping all wires tight together, they have no twisting flexibility, and insulation will crack. You discovered the problem before, which is great and save you from trouble, these wires are from CAN bus which is the communication between computer and DDM, so a shortcut will make you believe the DDM module is dead and replace it for a lot of money, they can't be just replaced need to be programmed too! Thanks for the video, my doors are still good and not greased, bone dry, I tried to oil them, didn't work very well, just mess around hinges...Do you think the plastic bushings failed from a chemical reaction with grease? I have to check that, I know every car needs grease on hinges, but not sure about these ones because is hard to do it, different design, and very hard to get the oil inside!

[@davidgold5961]

4:04 silicone spray helps a lot to loosen up the electrical connector.

[@pg41226]

Nice video!! A suggestion… put the bolt/insert in the freezer for a while, this way the hinge bolt will shrink and it might be easier to install them without a mallet 👍🏼

[@volvosweden]

Good idea. Thx for sharing.

[@davidgold5961]

It’s OK to tap into place with a mallet - it’s known as an INTERFERENCE FIT. Such a small diameter part won’t shrink enough to matter even at -30 degrees.

[@magnusterminus4728]

[@karlkunz5334]

The cause of the defective hinge is material abrasion due to rust. This occurs because water can drip from the plug above it over a rubber lip exactly onto the head of the hinge. Therefore only the lower hinge is affected. I also repaired that on my XC70. But since the repair kit wasn't available at that time, I used the broken one from a new upper hinge set and placed the lower mount on the head with a conical drilled drill bit and installed it. Works perfect. Volvo wanted to install the entire lower hinge, removing the lower hinge and welding a new one. This process would have been prohibitively expensive. My local Volvo dealership has done this several times and I think that's why the repair kits are so extremely expensive.

[@lenniebruce]

Serges' car looks pretty identical to mine, same colour and T6 Inscription. My lower hinge is rusty too on the same side. I'm going to rub it down, touch it up and put some grease on it.

Is it possible to take measure on the old bolt in order to make DIY repair. After all, all you need is new brass sleeve on the bolt. Then you can drill and tap screw a bolt to secure it into place.

[@SteffeL2]

330000km on my 2009, a bit curious on how mine look. Haven't had any errors, but it feels likely after seeing yours have the damage already.

[@wegrzyk]

I'm not sure for taping only broken wires. This two is can comunication wires so if all copper broke, ddm module will be not responding. Better way is to replace wiring from connector to few cm inside car and solder it.

[@davidgold5961]

11:22 those twisted pair heavy wires are for the door speaker. BMW also twists their speaker wires together to combat electronic noise.

[@srnc9740]

Right, it could be speakers or CAN bus, but the problem is that zip tie, on mine the problem was on straight wires and the entire left side went dead! Just a Volvo mistake...

[@Autism-Powers]

I just put 2 washers behind the hinges on the door side.

[@BOOTYSLAYER_-le3di]

Hey Yuri. My V70 door handle is tight and have to pull it very quickly or quite hard to get it to release. Someone pointed me to this video. My doors don’t sag and no hinges have any obvious play although the third black hinge thing does have some play but it’s been like that for months and this is a recent issue. Could you shed any expertise? Many thanks

[@robertsussland1876]

They are probably not selling a lot of the hinge repair kits because you can buy an entire new hinge and repair it without drilling for 80 bucks. However then you need to be careful to align the door.

[@volvosweden]

Good to know!

[@JoshuaDark88]

Excellent video, do you know what doors (door panels, hinges, and other exterior parts) are compatible with a P3 2010 Volvo V70? I've searched everywhere but I can't seem to find the answer.

[@volvosweden]

Not sure myself

[@dataflowgeometry]

The door harness exam is very revealing. Volvo should upgrade this flexing wire bundle for long-term reliability. A multi-turn coil would solve this by minimizing the angular flex. A specialized wire jacket is called for in this harness. The zip-tie was a bad idea -- velcro or electrical tape much better.

[@jawnsr]

i have an 09 v70 3.2, my door hinges are fine but none of the electronics on the driver side, front and rear doors(except the speakers) dont work. do you think its a wiring harness or a drivers door module?
